Small sofas are an effective way to incorporate contemporary furniture into a small living room area. The best small sofas are made from high quality oak, and can be fit into the tightest of spots. This flexibility will go a long ways towards helping you to follow your chosen style, while at the same time keeping the space very clean and linear.

First, you should pick an interior design theme which appeals to you but which will also add appeal to a tiny space. Having a good amount of clutter in the living room will make the place feel smaller so avoid decorating themes that clutter up the room.

Treatments to windows should not be bulky and use huge pelmets, jambs or sills that take up space. Heavy furnishings for a window in a living room that has restricted space could have the effect of making the room look smaller. Using blinds with the thinnest possible slats would help to give a feeling of space.
